@welkin7 "Whatever fool touches turns to trash (proverb)." Xi put a mine under China and the shock wave will hit the entire world; Trump has turned the global economy into a hoot. Hello, Great Depression!

@welkin7 China also dramatically increased its oil and gas reserves just before the #IranWar, as if it had inside information. And China is actively supporting Putin and the Ayatollahs (I don't want to say "Iran" because Iranians constantly protest against the dictatorship—even though they're being killed).

The main beneficiary of Trump's policy is China. The US, Canada, Europe, East Asia, South America, and the Persian Gulf suffer losses, but China gains. China is communist. And the communists' goal is to turn all people into cattle, without individuality, property, and rights.

The Ayatollahs' ships sail freely from the Persian Gulf. Trump doesn't shell them. But the Ayatollah's troops shell ports and factories in neighbouring countries. China buys oil and gas from the ayatollahs and sells it to the world at inflated prices. Who is Trump fighting for?

@ParadeGrotesque Europe can give Ukraine the weapons that are uselessly stored in warehouses. Europe can deny passage to all Russian ships, not just a few. Europe can more quickly develop homes and cars powered by wind and sun energy—this will force the US to forget its foolish adventures with oil and gas and even depend on Europe, because the US is far behind in green energy. I hope you are right and Europe will indeed wake up and change faster than Russia and Trump will destroy it.

@ParadeGrotesque I know Europe has been helping Ukraine since day one, and that support is vital in keeping Ukraine alive. However, it's not helping Ukraine to defeat Russia and ensure that everyone lives in true security.

I don't know who said this, but it's brilliant!

Trump is waging war against Europe. Trump is helping Putin. But Europe doesn't understand this. Europe blames Ukraine and fails to see how Ukraine is saving Europe from becoming Russia—a country of slavery, poverty, and constant violence.

Iran and Russia have shown that gas and oil are extremely unreliable energy sources. Small nuclear power plants, solar+wind ones and electric cars are needed. Cheap production should be done at home using technology but not through cheap workers in other countries. It's survival.

The problem isn't that Trump is an idiot who ruins everything he touches. Nor is it that his voteism caters to mediaeval savages in the darkest corners of modernity. The problem is that his rivals are too grey and faceless for competition. Trump is the king of the void.
